There are no contradictions between css-ui definitions and selectors definitions. Mostly they are the same, but some have a few more details and clarifications in the selectors specification.

During TPAC, a task was assigned to Bert (http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Tracker/actions/656) to ask Steven Pemberton and try find if there are any implementations. Steven suggested XSLTForms as the most likely candidate, but it does not implement these pseudos. Bert found one implementation: X-Smile (http://www.xsmiles.org/), but this is unmaintained since 2008. >> >> Tantek, do you know of other implementations? > > I do not. > > >> If not, even though they seem quite well defined to me, given the apparent general lack of implementation interest and the status of XFORMS on the web, I suggest dropping this section from CSS3-UI. > > Agreed and that was my plan once putting them at risk. Since we resolved on removing both of these (http://www.w3.org/mid/CADhPm3tfM7ewisaP+WGjjWa_TU35_JFQmdaaobsECytTEJR7hA@mail.gmail.com), here is a patch to do it.
